CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) has been the subject of many research reports over the last two decades. In an interesting study from June this year, researchers showed that CLA supports healthy body mass index and total fat mass in post menopausal women. How? It seems that CLA helps promote healthy levels of certain hormones released by fat cells that play an important role in balancing blood sugar levels and fat breakdown1. Radiance® TummyTone CLA provides 800mg of this much studied substance.

A herbal approach for helping the jeans fit this summer is Hoodia gordonii, a succulent plant from the African desert that ‘tricks’ the brain into thinking the stomach is full. Radiance® Hoodia PowerSlim, combines genuine African Hoodia with glucomannan, a 100% natural dietary fibre that helps reduce cravings by creating a sense of fullness.
